São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
Ijevan is the capital of the Tavush region in northern Armenia, located near the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, about 137 kilometers from the capital city of Yere, in the northern valley of the Armenian plateau, surrounded by rolling hills and beautiful natural scenery. The city was founded in the 19th century, initially as a military fortress, but gradually developed into a regional economic center. Ijevan is known for its manufacturing industry, especially furniture and carpets, and the unique craftsmanship of the "Ijevan carpet" is an important cultural symbol of the region. In addition, thanks to its location and natural beauty, tourism is on the rise, attracting tourists to experience mountain hiking and explore traditional Armenian culture.
